Prime Tips

Potatoes are very high in potassium but you can remove part of the potassium by peeling and dicing potatoes and then placing them in a large pot of warm tap water and soak for 2 to 4 hours.

Drain and set aside Fresh beef rump is very suitable for this recipe though fresh topside or knuckle are just as good.
